To write this review I watched 'Hamlet'... a 4 hour long movie (review coming up). Because that is the only play of Shakespeare I have not read. Why?
- It is a dark... dull... and very serious play... there is no comic or romantic relief
- It wasn't part of the course... but then I did read plays that were not part of my course
If Haider was not based on 'Hamlet' my views about the movie would be completely different. Some of the reviews say it is the best Vishal Bhardwaj till date. I have watched all the movies he has directed (except Makdee which am going to watch today/tomorrow) and liked all of them. But Haider is NOT his best film.
